You have to distinguish between
software and
data. You
can not publish software incorporating data taken from the books (or
GSL).
You
can publish some piece of software that allows you to enter this data, manipulate it produce some PDF or print-out from it.
As long as you don't incorporate actual game rules in your product, you should be save.
Think of PCGen without the (R)
SRD but - hopefully! - a decent LST-editor.
Such a software product would be something like a toolset to build your own character generator, not a real, works-from-the-first-minute CG.
